Question 35-16(2) Contract Information with the Government of Nunavut

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have a written question for the Minister of Health and Social Services regarding contract information with the Government of Nunavut. Please provide the following information in detail for the past three years:

How many people work in the speech-language pathology and occupational therapy unit; and further, what are the staffing levels historically, noting duration of any vacancies?

How long has this unit been providing speech and occupational therapy services to the Government of Nunavut?

Please provide the details of the contract with the Government of Nunavut, such as:

how often this unit needs to travel;

how long do they travel for;

how many staff travel;

how much money does this contract garner;

does the Government of Nunavut pay this cost when a bill is submitted;

what is the timeliness of our invoices; and

has the Government of the NWT failed to submit invoices in a timely way, or have our bills been disputed or missed?
